Good Morning Ladies,
Well that long weekend flew by, I do sometimes wish the girls were able to have time off at weekends, Lucy got a bad deal with her contract when they asked her to become permanent, she is contracted to work Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday & Monday every week, so she never has weekends and works every Bank Holiday, I think its wrong, Soph has Thursday & Friday off but she doesn't have actual contracted days, he does mess her about at times! The girls are not the type to complain though, they just get on with it, Matt & Becca would have had it changed, in fact when Becca did work at the Wildlife Park she got paid time & half for Sundays and Double time on a Monday, they had no shortage of offers to work Bank Holidays then!!
I had a slowish day yesterday, I pulled the duvet up in the night and it flared up this hernia think in my abdomen and my goodness was it uncomfortable, I took some pain killers but I could feel it move if I turned over, I dod manage to sew some Spinach and plant out some runner beans that had well out grown their pots, fingers crossed they will be ok. I also planted out some Sweet Potato plants, oh and Baked my Sourdough that I made on Sunday.
Karen I hope you recovered from your awful night my lovely XXX
Today's card was a 'quickie' inspired by pinterest, I stamped the 'Floral Outline ' in Chipped Sapphire Distress ink and added Clear Embossing powder and heat set, I then smooshed a little of the same ink on my glass mat with a spritz of water and used it to add a bit of colour to the image, just here and there, I didn't want the perfectly coloured look, I flicked a little of the same ink onto the background for interest and added a sentiment in the same ink, I popped on a few clear crystals for added sparkle and added the piece to a Navy card base on a slight angle ....just for fun 😂
I hope that you all have a good day,
Love and hugs to all,

Hi everyone
ReplyDeleteA gorgeous card, I love it 💖
The days are just rolling in to eachother for us here but we trying to do something together in the morning's most days.
Glad you are feeling better Karen. You must look after yourself. With dad having so many problems now because of diabetes I know how important that is. Hope you had a fun morning.
We went this morning to Ikea for breakfast and then popped next door to Asda for bits we needed extra. Had to buy a phone as well. Not to use but only for we changed our routa to sky. We're trying to get cheaper monthly fee so no more sky witness or sky Atlantic 🥲
Hoping that you all have had a nice day. Understand that you put some heating back on Brenda, it cold isn't it but think it will be warmer again towards the weekend so fingers crossed.
Hugs to you all, Maria xxx

ReplyDeleteHello All, it was warm and sunny here a while ago, sat outside to have our pasty for lunch. Gone cold now so back indoors now.
ReplyDeleteWent to Lidls this morning so now I’m tired out, but at least the fridge is restocked, love their coleslaw and their creamy yogurt. No cakes today, R usually tries to put one in the trolly when I’m not looking, have to say their doughnuts are delicious.
Lovely card today, love that stamp, looks good in that colour.
Must think w hat I’m going to do for this, no ideas yet.
Have a good afternoon, Lilian
